![]() I'm gonna try my luck this weekend (Have a 4 day weekend) for the first time fishing for Hybrids at Manasquan Res. I'm just not really sure what the best way to go about this, and I hear the chicken liver is a real bitch keeping it on the hook. I was suggested to use #4 & #6 baitholder hooks, I also read to use a treble hook, because it's easier to hold the bait. If I could just get some info, on the setup you use, kinda hook,what kind of sinker, size to cut the chicken live up, and how far to run the sinker up from the hook. As of last Sunday, I'm still catching some pretty good largemouth out of Manasquan, so i have to assume that I still should be able to catch Hybrids??? Or should I just stick to Largemouth and smallies, and not bother with Hybrids??? Thank you guy's, I just joined the forum about a month ago, and I have to say, it's a great place for information with a GREAT bunch of guy's. I will be def. be giving back to the board helping others when I can.

![]() I'm assuming it's slowed down but I'm going to give it a last shot too on cong just cause my friend wants to. Don't use a treble hook. Use a decent sized in line circle hook 1/0 probably good. Put a little weight up above it maybe 2 feet, I don't think it matters much. Put a half on there and just drop it down. Leave the drag loose and keep the chum going.

![]() Few quick wraps with floss or elastic thread and you'll be set. Cast gently or sink it below the boat.
Plenty of conversations on here regarding the hybrids, search function will be your best friend. |
